what happened
Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas, as reported by Stocktwits, called the latest market sell-off "the 280th nervous breakdown" in a couple of years. On the Wolf Of All Streets podcast he said the drop in Nvidia shares looked algorithm-driven and headline-driven and could be brief, with ETF investors still buying through the decline.
Balchunas estimated year-to-date outflows from Bitcoin funds at about $1.4 billion, while SosoValue data showed net outflows from U.S. Bitcoin ETFs of $1.75 billion so far this year. He said Bitcoin appeared to have found a base in the $60,000 area, though it was trading near $68,000 after falling almost 3% over the past day.
why it matters
Two signals matter here. Nvidia shares have fallen about 13% since April last year, after Jensen Huang stepped down as CEO. Balchunas said only a real problem with earnings would change his view of the AI trade. For crypto, the ETF outflows and bearish retail sentiment on Stocktwits are the figures to watch.
market impact
Nvidia and Bitcoin ETFs: pressure from the sell-off and fund outflows
- Nvidia pressure down — shares slid after Huang's exit and an AI-sector sell-off
- Bitcoin mixed — ETF outflows weigh, but the analyst sees support and a quick shift in sentiment
